An act to add Section 49073.2 to the Education Code, relating to local educational agencies.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

SB 1036, Wilk. Local educational agencies: minutes of meetings of governing bodies: inclusion of directory information and personal information of pupils and parents or guardians of pupils.

(1) Existing law authorizes school districts to release pupil directory information, as specified, and defines directory information as one or more prescribed items, including, among others, a pupil’s name, address, telephone number, and date of birth.

This bill would prohibit the inclusion of directory information, as defined, and personal information, as defined, of a pupil or of the parent or guardian of a pupil in the minutes of a meeting of the governing body, as defined, of a local educational agency, as defined, if a pupil who is 18 years of age or older or a parent or guardian of a pupil has provided a written request to the secretary or clerk of the governing body to exclude his or her personal information or the name of his or her minor child, as specified. To the extent the bill would add to the duties of local educational agencies, it would impose a state-mandated local program.

(2) The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.

This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above.
